I think 11/16 was closer to the weaves a little; folks were split on which way to turn at 11. You can work 12 as the front or back side too. Lots of variations with only three obstacles! #agilitynerd

Can you handle this weave entry? I've blogged our experience (with video) running Stefanie Theis' Masters Series Jumping course with the most challenging weave entry I can recall. It's a fun sequence to run and use for practice! #dogagility #agilitynerd

We went to the UKI Invitational and all we got was this t-shirt… We stopped in to register, got my shirt and scratched all our runs. It was good to see some super friends and commiserate. We’ll be visiting for the finals on Sunday. Good luck to all the competitors!! #uki #dogagility #agilitynerd

Snap! & Spark Steeplechase Final Cynosport Qualifiers Got 'er done!

Spark and Snap!'s Steeplechase qualifying runs from yesterday's USDAA trial. Would have liked to get a blind cross on the landing of the jump after the first tunnel but I knew I couldn't get there. Now both boys are qualified to go to Cynosport 2025! #dogagility #agilitynerd

we also have to be kind to ourselves.

So whatever challenges your are facing; know that all you can do is your best at that time. Just keep showing up and "giving it a whirl" 🙂

Snap! is always happy to give it a whirl! Photo by Pics by Kim #dogagility #agilitynerd (2/2)

A fun one!!!

All the dogs have been seeing the same vet since the early 90s. He still has a holiday photo of Mr Peabody and Milo from 2003 on his wall 💕 #agilitynerd #dogagility

Sketch courses/sequences at home, seminars, workshops, and class starting on a blank course grid. Sometimes putting pencil to paper is faster/easier than using course design software. Create any size blank course grid and print it! #dogagility #agilitynerd

None of the dogs have been serious toy destroyers. This photo shows why there is now a moratorium on getting more dog toys! This doesn't include all the ones currently scattered around the house either! 😆 #dogs #agilitynerd

Episode 356: Should You Specialize? - Bad Dog Agility photo credit: Great Dane Photos In this episode (38:55) In this episode, we tackle a listener’s question: Can you excel in more than one agility venue? Specialization vs. versatility is a hot topic…

Excellent BDA podcast covering the challenges of competing in multiple venues. In the US we have many choices of venue; some requiring different skills for both dogs and handlers. Should you consider specializing in certain venues/types of competitions? #dogagility #agilitynerd

Use NFC/FEO and mulligans to acclimate your dogs to new equipment, flooring, and new environmentals. I entered Spark in a local UKI trial to give him some experience on different contact equipment. It was the best $20 I've spent! #dogagility #agilitynerd

Dog agility *25 years ago* this month. Mr. Peabody and me at our first a big AKC show (IKC show) that had benched confirmation and agility in Chicago's McCormick Place. It was a massive building and show. I think I signed up because folks we trained wIth were all going.

Snap! & Spark USDAA Masters Challenge was a Challenge! After two clean MC Standard runs the long day caught up to me when it came time to run MC Jumpers as the last run of the day. Thankfully, scores are combined...

Snap! and Spark earned USDAA Steeplechase and Masters Challenge qualifying Q's for Cynosport! 🥇🥇🥇🥇 We had great MC Std runs and my handling errors on the MC Jumpers runs didn't keep us from qualifying on the overall score. Course maps and all runs:

What fun name do you have for a heinous call off? In Steeplechase I was so, so late giving Snap! his turning cues over the long jump that he went straight for the off course tunnel . So I used the "Team Scream" or "Alligator Come" to save our Cynosport qualifying Q. #dogagility #agilitynerd

Smaller Space Training Sequence I created a 50' x 80' jumping version of a fun and challenging Dana Pike agility training course I recently shared. Lots of good challenges with some longer lines even in a smaller space.

When you forget to cross on the entry to the weaves and put yourself behind on a 130’ line with a running dog walk to the tire with an off course tunnel to the right of the DW exit 😝😱🏃‍♂️🥇I used all of Spark’s words to pull this one out of the ashes! #dogagility #agilitynerd
